I TOLD YOU WE WOULD DO IT

Last week Brian and I stayed up all night to get Radiohead presale tickets for the San Jose concert. This is something I usually excel at because I will put everything in life aside to see Their Greatness... this time was no different.
 
We got stationed at our computers at 12am, ready to check every hour on the hour (and sometimes in between) even though 2:00am PST is usually the rumored time. Thank god the rumors were wrong because, quite predictably, Tiff's internet went down at about 1:30. We waited around for a couple hours, checking for tickets on our phones and praying that the internet would come back. Out of pure desperation, we decided to go to the Yelp office at 3:15am.
 

View from the 9th floor, around 7:00am
 
Once again, every hour on the hour we checked for tickets, always to no avail. Around 7am we decided to go upstairs so that Brian could take naps every 30 minutes.... And then... 10 o'clock came around...
 
What you are about to read is a transcript of True Fans (including me) at their absolute finest (and some at their absolute worst). Please enjoy Radiohead fans just going absolutely stupid...
